progress at preschool

It is no secret that I was nervous about Emily starting preschool in September. You may remember reading a little something about it in my post called Winds of Change. She has only been going for a little over a month, and we are already seeing changes.

♥Emily no longer cries when getting dropped off in the morning – actually she gets a very big grin on her face when she sees her friend Ava getting off the bus. They hold hands, along with the teacher and walk into class together.

♥ She is using sign language more consistently. She has always tried signing, but now seems to be using them for a purpose. Like asking me for a “cracker” to eat. Signs she has been using more consistently are more, eat, milk, cracker, waves goodbye, all done, bath, and mom.

♥ She is using words more often like mom, ball, bear, Pooh, no & nods her head yes.

♥ Emily has also brought home some beautiful artwork for Mommy & Daddy. That means she is starting to color & paint in her class. Reluctantly.

♥ She participated today in Circle Time, that was a first. Usually she would just watch from a distance. Can I get a Woot Woot for Pooh!

♥ When I tell Emily it’s time for school, she marches straight over to her backpack & hands it to me. Adorable! She sometimes thinks it’s school time on the weekends. hehe

There are other progresses she is showing at home, and we couldn’t be more proud of our little Pooh. That deserves another Woot Woot!

My name is Christina and I am addicted to taking photos of these adorable children in Emily’s class ………… hand in hand & looking oh so sweet! I will never get tired of seeing this at the end of the preschool day.

PS. Be watching for more preschool pictures next week when we take our field trip to the pumpkin patch. {there could be a giveaway in it for you}

Definately a big WOOT WOOT for Pooh (Emily)… funny how the children seem to settle down quicker than us Mums do!!! I’m so happy that she is now enjoying it and WOW the signing and speech is doing amazing – well done Emily x
